First, let's complete the angles in the triangle. Remember that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.
73 + 90 + x = 180
163 + x = 180
x = 17
So, the angle that completes the triangle is 17 degrees. If we look at that angle in the triangle and the one adjacent to it, we can see that those two angles form a linear pair (or are supplementary, both meaning that they add up to 180 degrees).
17 + x = 180
x = 163
So, 17's supplement is 163 degrees. The 163 degree angle corresponds with angle r, and corresponding angles are congruent.
Therefore, angle r is 163 degrees. The correct answer is option C.
Hope this helps!
Answer: 46 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the father's age be x and the son's age be y, then 3 years ago:
Father = x - 3
son = y - 3
Then , from the first statement :
x - 3 = 3 ( y - 3 )
x - 3 = 3y - 9
x = 3y - 9 + 3
x = 3y - 6 .......................................... equation 1
In five years time
father = x + 5
son = y + 5
Then , from the second statement
x + 5 = 2 ( y + 5 )
x + 5 = 2y + 10
x = 2y + 10 - 5
x = 2y + 5 ........................ equation 2
Equating equation 1 and 2 , we have
3y -6 = 2y + 5
add 6 to both sides
3y = 2y + 5 + 6
subtract 2y from both sides
3y - 2y = 11
y = 11
substitute y = 11 into equation 1 to find the value of x
x = 3y - 6
x = 3(11) - 6
x = 33 - 6
x = 27
This means that the father is presently 27 years and the son is presently 11 years.
In four years time
father = 27 + 4 = 31
son = 11 + 4 = 15
sum of their ages in four years time will be
31 + 15 = 46 years

Answer:
0.10x + 0.13y = 10780
x + y = 100000
x = 74000 --------------10%
y = 26000 --------------13% (more risky)
